Starchild / The World of Fool’s Hollow

Most readers of the Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica books know that I spent a number of years creating a comic book series called STARCHILD. It was the first journey into the world of Fool’s Hollow … but certainly not the last.

ESSENTIAL STARCHILD Book 1 – Includes the prologue to the first STARCHILD story arc, “Gatherum”, “The Mad-Eyed Sorcerer”, “Children of the Storm”, and “That Hideous Strength”, plus the covers from STARCHILD #0 – #3, sketchbook pages, and additional material

ESSENTIAL STARCHILD Book 2 – Includes “The Wild Hunt”, “Toccata and Fugue”, “Autumn People”, and the never-reprinted short story “Little Neil in Slumberland”, plus the covers from STARCHILD #4 – #6, sketchbook pages, and additional material

ESSENTIAL STARCHILD Book 3 – Includes “The Old Mill”, “A Fine Madness”, “Fool’s Game”, and the never-reprinted short story “The Last Temptation of Little Neil”, plus the covers from STARCHILD #7 – #9, sketchbook pages, an introduction by CONCRETE’S Paul Chadwick, and additional material

ESSENTIAL STARCHILD Book 4 – Includes “Spirits in a Material World”, “Tempest in a Looking Glass”, and the conclusion of the first STARCHILD story arc, “Awakening”. Also, an illustrated collaboration with Alan Moore, plus the covers from STARCHILD #10 – #12, sketchbook pages, an introduction by SANDMAN’S Neil Gaiman and additional material

ESSENTIAL STARCHILD Book 6 – Includes stories that begin the third story arc with “Mythopolis – Prologue”, and “Mythopolis Book One – Pinehead” plus the covers from STARCHILD:MYTHOPOLIS #0 – #3, sketchbook pages, and a special preview of the upcoming book, TALES FROM FOOL’S HOLLOW!

The 20th Anniversary Nearly-Complete Essential StarChild – In the Summer of 2013, on the 20th Anniversary of the first issue’s publication, a Kickstarter project was launched to present a collected volume of every page of story and art of StarChild. That Kickstarter has successfully completed, and rewards will be shipped in October. Additional copies of the 20th Anniversary Nearly-Complete Essential StarChild will be available via the Coppervale website later this year.
